Avoid any road with MLK in the name. Trust me.

“I’m still against GPS.”

Why are you against GPS?

I use GPS in my vehicles often. But I always have paper maps as backup.

My dad was a retired USA tug boat Chief Warrant officer. During the Korean War he was a port pilot at the port of Inchon. He always got funny looks on the bridge of ships he was piloting into port. He would tell them not to worry, he was a blue grass pilot and when he smelled bluegrass, it was time to back her down.

So, yeah, remember when 5G hit and all the nav systems in older cars, with things like Navistar, quit working? They will always be doing this to us-—killing off the old stuff so we have to buy new. Maybe this gal was driving an old Buick?

GPS is useful, but it’s no substitute for good old-fashioned thinking.

Like the time I was using GPS to take me to a certain store. I came to a T intersection. I could see the store off to my right, but the GPS wanted me to turn left.

I turned right.

I don’t have it (of course-—I’m a Luddite who hates technology).

Had to endure riding with relatives miles and miles out of our way one day while they obediently did what they were told. I told them to start again and it can’t be right.

Same here... I am intelligent enough I will never need a car to do my thinking for me. Only those too lazy to think for themselves use GPS.

GPS is OK as something to consult for an opinion.

Do not trust that the CCP can not screw with it.
